Wearable Display Brightness Control for Foreground Object Focus
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing augmented reality (AR) wearable devices struggle to dynamically adjust the brightness of background objects based on the size or number of foreground objects, leading to a suboptimal user experience.
Innovation Solution
A wearable device equipped with a display, memory, and a processor that can execute instructions to dynamically change the brightness of a background object based on the size or number of foreground objects displayed, thereby maintaining user focus on foreground content.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Illumination intensity
If the brightness of the background object is maintained at a high level, then the overall visibility is improved, but the foreground objects become less distinct and user focus is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The background brightness is made dynamic rather than static. The system automatically adjusts the background brightness level based on the number of foreground objects detected, transitioning from a fixed high brightness state to an adaptive brightness state that prioritizes foreground visibility.
Solution Approach 2:
The brightness parameter of the background object is changed based on the count of foreground objects. When the number of foreground objects exceeds a threshold, the system changes the background brightness parameter to a lower level, thereby emphasizing the foreground objects and improving user focus.
2Ease of operation
If the brightness of the background object is reduced to emphasize foreground objects, then user focus is improved, but the overall visibility and ambient perception deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies different brightness characteristics to different parts of the display. The background region has adjusted brightness based on foreground object count, while the foreground objects maintain their own brightness characteristics. This local differentiation ensures that foreground objects remain visible and distinct while the background adapts to provide appropriate context.
3Quantity of substance
If the display shows more foreground objects simultaneously, then information density is improved, but the display becomes cluttered and visual clarity is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The background brightness parameter is dynamically changed based on the number of foreground objects displayed. When multiple foreground objects are detected, the system reduces background brightness to create visual separation and maintain clarity, preventing the display from becoming cluttered while still allowing multiple objects to be shown simultaneously.

AI summary
A processor, comprising processing circuitry, of a wearable device, individually and/or collectively, may be configured to cause the wearable device to: display, on a display, a foreground object superimposed on a background object having a first brightness; based on identifying that at least a portion of the display occupied by the foreground object has increased in size, at least one processor may be configured to change the brightness of the background object to a second brightness that is lower than the first brightness. The disclosure may relate to a metaverse service for strengthening interconnectivity between a real object and a virtual object. For example, the metaverse service may be provided through a network based on fifth generation (5G) and/or sixth generation (6G).
